New on the list

The other day i send an introduction to both You on the "sansevieria list" and "Other succulents".
Unfortunately I got it rejected from this list, because the message was too long.
Well,  for a month or so I have followed the nice and cosy conversation,and I think most of You also are active on the "Other succulent" list, and have read my message there.
 Anyway, here You have a litlle different, and now more shortly introduction:
 
My name is Ove Christensen.  My biggest interests is in Gasteria, Hoya and most of all Sansevieria.
 
In Denmark only Sansevieria Trifasciata and Hahnii types are common.
Of other species I have had the luck to find me: Cylindrica patula (small shoots), Dawei (small shoot), Grandis (3 bigger shoots), Grandicuspis (nice mature plant) , Hyacintioides (small with only two leaves), Liberica (only a leaf cut), Suffruticosa (small shoots) and Metallica (now a big and nice plant),
 
Three years ago, me and my daughter had a tour in Brazil. In Salvador, at Praio Do Forte, I collected some broken trifasciata leaves from the ground.
Today it's a very fine plant, but different to what I know of Trifasciata types. First, each plant has 4-6 leaves. Older leaves doesn't darken but gets a light green color. The longest leaves till now are only about 55 cm/22 inch'es long. The plant has only green colours and no Yellow stribes like Laurentii.
Does  anybody have a guess for what a Trifasciata type we found there- ?
   Another sansevieria I have and think is special is a Hahnii type. It looks very much like a normal Hahni, but has much longer leaves than other Hahnii's I know. Uptil 35 cm/14 inch.
